On Saturday June 30, 2007, J.J MOLLARET rescue base, also known as "DZ des Bois", was open to the public. During the morning and the afternoon, numerous people then had the possibility to admire the evolutions of the three present aircraft : Sécurité Civile's F-ZBDJ Alouette III (MSN 1879), Gendarmerie's F-MJBH EC145 (MSN 9037), and Pascal BRUN's AS350B3 of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc Hélicoptères. Their crews performed excellent demos of winching, aerial works, and water drops. On the ground, some shopworks simulated various kinds of rescue techniques, and booths of participants were offering information and souvenirs to visitors.
